It's an elementary disc golf course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 30, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

It's really great that the school has a disc golf course. With the width of the fairways, I'm guessing that the kids all can throw 200' laser straight shots.

This looks like a course that was designed to follow an old path and the electical service rightaway. However, paths are all narrow and have odd turns, and having electical poles and high voltage wire in the middle of the fairway don't allow great throws.

Cons:

No tee pads.
Several fairways that neck down to 10'-15' wide in multiple places.
Signage is temporary.
I never found holes 1 and 2.
All baskets are Discatcher practice baskets.

Other Thoughts:

The course has definite potential. There's land to use. Installing tee pads (pavers, concrete, etc.) is easy to do and could be done piecemeal. Signs are relatively cheap, and the students could do them, including one that shows the location of hole #1.

Prune back some of the brush, and cut down some of the trees to widen the fairways (but not all of them!).
